Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Like, of course you have to write down all your to-dos and set reminders? Of course you should have what you need wherever you need it (chapstick, trash cans). Etc.
I think that's all normal behavior. What's abnormal is the expectation that people can stay focused on their job task for 8 hours a day without wavering.
So people adapt by learning how to multitask by whatever means they have. To-Do lists are not symptomatic of anything except trying to get a handle on a poorly designed culture.
I killed the thread for 12 hours. I'm the problem. It's me.
Speaking of problems, I need to make another comprehensive To Do list because I've got a shit ton to doo bee doo.
I've been slightly waylaid by the twin issues with the Credit Union, and paralyzed with not caring.
But now the things I was not dealing with require more immediate attention. So much for slacking.
Got an email from my oldest medical practice. They became a customer when I was pregnant with Bobby, 30 years ago. One of the original doctors passed away a decade ago, one retired last year, and another next month. The 3 remaining have sold out to a humongous medical group so we will have to do an export project of the medical records. There are over 5 million documents in the system, but it would be less for the last 10 years if that is going to be the export.
It makes me sad and is another item on the list that makes DH just want to close it down. That makes me sad since I just had my son take over my position. Don't know what is going to happen. The last few years so many of our doctors have been gobbled up by the monster groups, and I don't see that changing.
As of now, my flight to Newark next week is canceled. If the airline returns in the beginning of May I may be able to salvage some of this vacation, but right now... Oof. I really want to see you all.
Ooof.
I'm sorry, Shir.
Oh, shit. I'm sorry.
Oh dang, Shir. That sucks. No way for them to rebook you through some other airport or something? So sorry.
Grrr, Shir!
DAMN IT. Shir I can’t imagine the stress you’re under and how much you need to tour around our big goofy country spending time with people who adore you. I am still hoping for a miracle!!!
